Boy Howdy indeed. I got home late last nite and it was cold and damp and I
was too pooped to cook so I opened a can of Campbell's Chunky Beef &
Veggie soup (all flames gratefully accepted). Added a little garlic powder
and a grind of pepper corn mix...and about a half teaspoon of Calvin
Powder. Nuked it hot and took a big spooonfull. Suffice it to say that a
quarter teaspoon woulda probly been enuf. Boy Howdy...that stuff do gather
potency when cooked a little. Lethalist bowl of beef stew I've ever
tangled with.

Who rummaged in the canned goods closet this moning and came up with
Chicken Noodle and NE Clam Chowder...and who still has about a teaspoon of
CP left.
